Thousands of people are thought to be experiencing low water pressure or a loss of supply after a main burst in Rooks Bridge on Tuesday (June 26).

Bristol Water temporarily turned off the water to around 400 properties in the area while they worked to fix the problem.

Crews later discovered the burst was located under the A38.

To make sure that residents in the area were not without water, Bristol Water placed one bowser on the layby by the New Moon Inn in Biddisham, and a second bowser on Chapel Road, Rooksbridge off the A38.
